About ‘The Mongoose’
Neeson and Stocker’s third film together is based on the story of Ryan “Fang” Flanagan, a man who gets tangled up in a heinous crime that he did not commit. Fang then sets off a chain of events as he sends the authorities on a cross-country chase, getting help from his brothers in arms and from public sympathy and support to survive. Along with Neeson and Stocker, the film also stars Marisa Tomei, who has worked on projects like ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ as Aunt May and ‘The Wrestler.’The film is slated to be released in theatres on October 30.
